I just reset the security on my 2001 grand prix. Now the car will not start.

about the 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

The Security light does got out as it's supposed to, and it started and ran fine previously.There are no other mechanical issues.. fuel pump is fine, starter is fine, fuses are fine etc. This just happened after I reset the security. I had disconnected the battery for 10 mins, then reconnected, then used the reset procedure (on for 12 mins, off, then on, then off etc).

I remedied the situation by disconnecting both the negative and positive
cables for 10 mins with the key in the "on" position. After that, cranked
right up. No more security light (blinking or otherwise)
